Tross Report post Posted December 18, 2019 I just purchased a Singer 531. I have researched and it seems it's a Seiko made 206rb. How can I tell if it's a 1, 2, 3? It works great! Serial is TH9404812. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gregg From Keystone Sewing Report post Posted December 20, 2019 Your Singer 531B-8BL is a 1994 model, either 206RB-1 or -2. The variance is the oil system where the -2 has an oil tank for the hook and centralized lubrication. Some -1s had this oil system as well, but all of the -2s have the oil system.
